A Passion for Papertrey Challenge Entry - Purple!

I love purple! Lol! This card is my entry for the Passion for Papertrey challenge this week - to make a card using your favourite colour!

The thing is, purple really doesn't suit me, so I hardly ever wear the colour....perhaps its just that it is a regal colour and I have delusions of grandeur!

So here it is! Made with the Sweet Pea Year of Flowers set. Really, really pretty. I'm not normally a flowers kind of girl, but these are so lovely. Apologies for dodgy colouring of photo - no natural light, so it looks baaaaaddd! Took lots of inspiration from the fabulous DT for PTI.

They remind me of when I moved into my first ever home, and I wanted my little garden to be full of flowers. So I emptied a whole packet of sweet pea seeds into a 1m x 50cm patch. The results were completely bonkers, looked like a Sci Fi monster with good colour taste! LMAO!

Also decided that gardening was so NOT me! Lol! Right, best get myself to work! Have a great day! Kx
